Scheme minimum corpus is the SEBI-mandated minimum AUM threshold that a mutual fund scheme must reach during the NFO (New Fund Offer) subscription period for the scheme to launch operations. If the corpus minimum is not achieved, the scheme is not launched and subscription amounts are returned to investors.
